If this is true it will be only the second time Nintendo have lowered the price of the console since it's release in 2006, does this show signs that Nintendo are starting to focus on the next console or is it due to sales of the console slowing down?

I Think They're Doing That To Get Money From Sale Drops, Like What Was Said Above.

Nobody wants a Wii anymore.

I do think 'wii' are going to make another console, after the
Xbox released it's connect and ps3 released their one, forgot what it is called, 'wii' understandably have NO buyers, so in that case, it will be the right time to create a new 'wii' console!


And the makers of the 'wii' had to lower it's prices

Something everyone already has, But a lower cost!

i wouldn't buy one anyway

Wait.... people still play the Wii?

I remember when they were going for $600+ on eBay. If they lowered it to $150 I don't think it would effect sales to much. I wonder how much it costs Nintendo to produce one Wii.

mario karts on the wii is the shit

Nintendo is smart!! Always ahead of the curve! They know it's always about price and now they are setting themselves up to have more Wii's in families houses that didn't have a Wii before. This also puts pressure on 360 and PS3 to respond with a price drop!!
